Alpha-linolenic acid pretreatment alleviates NETs-induced alveolar macrophage pyroptosis by inhibiting pyrin inflammasome activation in a mouse model of sepsis-induced ALI/ARDS

ConclusionOur study is the first to demonstrate Pyrin inflammasome driving NETs-induced macrophage pyroptosis, and ALA may reduce ALI/ARDS by inhibiting the activation of the Pyrin inflammasome-driven macrophage pyroptosis.
